Thanks to Jacques, who’s beautiful photo of the vineyards in Southern France inspired this painting

I have been trying to decide,

What is good and evil,

But that apple was never meant for me.

The gift was a garden to tend,

To wander and love in,

Take a lesson from the birds and the bees.

This is the view from my studio in Hohenschönhausen, these are the trees who look over the wall into the old Stasi HQ.

This painting is currently in an exhibition at Vue Sur Cours gallery in Narbonne, Southern France.

Please contact the lovely Claude for further information. (She speaks good English, with a lovely accent!)

This painting is a necessary part of my documentation of the current chapter in the history of the Canal du Midi.

“Stumped Without You” portrays a now common as the ailing trees are felled. In time the stumps are removed and gradually young trees are planted in their place, but for a few months these poignant reminders remain; empty plinths, calling us to remember what was.

Help replant a tree today! 🙂
